5 bedroom Semi-detached house For Sale

Properties of this scale and character rarely come to market. Set behind an eye-catching red-brick façade with striking bay windows and an arched storm porch, 42 Henry Road is a five-bedroom home extending to an impressive 2,560 sq ft across four floors, giving a buyer real room to breathe and genuine scope to create something special. The property would now benefit from a scheme of modernisation throughout, but its bones are excellent: soaring ceilings, deep bay windows, original tiled flooring and ornate period detailing run through the house, offering a superb canvas for a full renovation or a carefully phased refurbishment.

Ground Floor

Step through the entrance hall, with its striking original patterned tiled floor, high ceilings and decorative corbels, into a sequence of generously proportioned rooms. The first reception room is a wonderful example of period proportion, its bay window flooding the space with light, complemented by ornate coving, a decorative ceiling rose and a charming cast-iron fireplace as its focal point. A second reception room, usable as an office, offers equally versatile living space as it is also ideal as a dining room, snug or playroom, depending what suits family life best. Beyond, the kitchen/diner provides an excellent base for a future open-plan or extended kitchen design (subject to relevant planning permissions), flowing through to a bright sunroom where doors open onto the patio and garden beyond. Together, these rooms offer huge potential to create a spectacular open-plan hub for modern family life, filled with natural light from front to back.

Lower Ground Floor

A real bonus for a house of this age and size, the cellar offers a substantial run of storage rooms that also provide very useful access for works while also being substantial storage.

First Floor

Three excellent double bedrooms occupy this floor, headlined by a master bedroom, generous in size with its own bay window. Bedroom two and three offer similarly comfortable proportions. A separate bathroom and WC give the practicality larger households need.

Second Floor

Two further bedrooms make this a genuine five-bedroom home, ready to accommodate a growing family, multi-generational living and guest accommodation along with a further useful store room.

Outside

The rear garden is a blank canvas in its own right, generous in size, enclosed by mature hedging and established fruit trees, with a paved patio, garden shed and a characterful brick-built outdoor fireplace just waiting to be brought back to life for summer entertaining.
